We need your help to encourage these youth to make good decisions and be the best they can be!

    We are looking for instructors, speakers, mentors, and community members who can give something special to our youth.

Mission Statement:

The Y-Leaders program serves approximately twenty-five to thirty 15-18 year-old high school students at Bowsher and Waite High Schools. The focus of the program revolves around four key elements: academics, leadership development, healthy living, and career and college readiness. Students in our program benefit from extra after school help with homework and participate in student-centered, project-based programming both in the classroom and out in the community during field trips.
